Early orthodontic evaluation and intervention can help identify and address orthodontic issues in children as young as 2 to 3 years of age. Correcting malocclusions or misalignments of the teeth at an early stage can reduce the need for extensive orthodontic treatment later in life.
Children have unique needs and sensitivities when it comes to dental care. Dental professionals with experience in pediatric dentistry can make the dental experience more comfortable and positive for children. Building a positive relationship with the dentist at a young age helps children feel at ease during dental visits and encourages the development of good dental habits.
